So why do have gtk+ in your USE, then? That's the one that makes ufraw pull in 
gtk+ which in turn wants cairo with the X flag. OTOH, this doesn't mean you'll 
get X installed on your machine. You'll only get a handful of X libs.

Because it's not imagemagick that wants cairo with X (which the emerge output 
above clearly states).
